Using Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles
2. Developing Proof State why ∆AXY and ∆CYX are
congruent. Then list all other corresponding parts
of the triangles that are congruent.
3. Given: QS RT , R  S
Prove: QTS  TQR
To start, determine how you can prove the triangles are congruent.
The triangles share a side and have a pair of congruent angles.
alternate interior angles SQT and
Because QS
